Two cases of inv(8)(p11q13) in AML with erythrophagocytosis: a new cytogenetic variant

We describe two patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) associated with erythrophagocytosis and a pericentric inversion of chromosome 8, inv(8)(p11q13). The haematological features were indistinguishable from those of patients with the t(8;16) syndrome and its variants. Our observations emphasize the importance of the breakpoint at 8p11 and the possible involvement of the MOZ gene in all these cases.

Abstract

We describe two patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) associated with erythrophagocytosis and a pericentric inversion of chromosome 8, inv(8)(p11q13). The haematological features were indistinguishable from those of patients with the t(8;16) syndrome and its variants. Our observations emphasize the importance of the breakpoint at 8p11 and the possible involvement of the MOZ gene in all these cases.
